Pieceful Quilter 07-15-2011 04:01 PM

Oh, that quilt brought me to tears the instant I saw it. My son just last week swore in with the Army on deferred entry. Bless all our soldiers, yours and mine.

The quilt is so very special. I am sure it will be a life-long treasure. Tell your son he has my personal gratitude for serving.

peaceandjoy 07-15-2011 04:13 PM

Amazing quilt! You did a beautiful job. I saw from one of your posts that he'll be home in a couple of weeks. Yeahh!!! You must be on pins and needles (sorry, couldn't resist...)

That's also quite a lapful you've got there!

Can't wait to see the picture of the two of you with his quilt.

MaggieMeg 07-15-2011 04:24 PM

Oh how wonderful! I know he will be very pleased. That is the best welcome home banner I've ever seen. And congratulations on your son's return home!

Very nice.

You have a couple of very talented quilt inspectors.

Haven't seen you at the Guild Meetings.

Glenda m 07-15-2011 05:02 PM

What a great quilt!!! And...your three quilt inspectors could almost be mine. I have a brown chiweenie, black and white chichuchua and a black and white rat terrier. Small world.

Great work Don, thanks for showing.

Don this turned out so beautiful. There a re so many ways to say I love You. I know he will treasure it. It must of given you a lot of time to think of all the warm stories of him growing uo while you were making this. I love how you put the houses on there. I know he thought a lot about home a lot while he was there. Truely you choose a wonderful expression of your love for him. We will all be looking forward to seeing a picture of him. Maybe a special one of you and him with his quilt. What a keepsake. Helen in Ok.
